A quick & easy way to get money that doesn't get filtered back to us. Still, all these huge 770 posters are an eyesore. in more ways than one!

they had blood in there eyes!
in my life,i have never seen such a one sided!
this was done to day for well over 3 hours, tree at a time,pole at a time! they would Never do this when they want us to vote for a colored mayer or pres!
or when ever there is a vote to be done!
why now? and in such a way?
this does Not happen in flatbush,boro park,utica ave,queens ect..... if i did not see the blood in there eyes i would not be on here now! and what signs did they take down??
yeshiva's asking for money for the poor!
i did see some police signs that was not touched on the same pole! is that ok? just remmber,what comes around goes around!we will Never Stop to help the poor,the schools ect... i am not saying that this is allowed,its the way it was done!

Not only is it illegal to put a poster on public property, what kind of a person staples a poster to a tree, a living thing?
Putting up posters(on public property, utility poles, etc.)is a misdomeanor offense! Subject to arrest if unanswered!
Good for the DSNY, they should do it more in other Jewish neighborhoods, the postering is out of control. It all ends up as trash on the ground. If the whole city looked like CH, BP, Flatbush, Williburgh, you'd complain about that.
Just once I'd like to see Yidden as role models of law abidding citizenry instead of whinning about why they can't break,or bend the law because “we're special”

its a good thing...ch looks like a pigstie. with all the signs, signs shouldnt be posted on polls or trees. announcments should be posted on crownheights.info

Frankly. it's about time. No other city in the USA tolerates it, and if that is the law, then not obeying it is a chilul Hashem, besides it makes CH look trashy, especially when the flyers fall of and are all ove rteh sidealk and sometimes with the Rebbe's picture.

The fact say differently...
New York City - Thompson Fined $126K for Putting Up Campaign Posters

Besides with the Internet/text etc... today, who needs posters. Whom ever needs to know will know.

Keep in mind that locking a bike to a tree is illegal since it damages the tree plus you can be fined up to $1,000

Sanitation “Targeting” Crown Heights.

How are we to know they don't do this in any other Jewish neighborhood?
I say Jewish, because we only see this to such an extrema extent in Jewish neighborhoods.

We can do without the posters.

Lets see....
We have the Internet for one thing.
If you don't have Internet (?)Then...
You will probably getting fliers and posters from your kids/school.
You will find them on your door steps.
In your lobbies (also disgusting).
You will see them in Shul (if that guy doesn't throw them out).

Does the posting of signs even help?

they should start by removing our garbage which has been collected since the first snowstorm in some blocks.

So why are the police allowed to put up signs???

& isn't it funny they do it on the night that the “community council” put up all the signs

well.. for once most agree..
I am v. glad they are discouraging the posters.
I have a lamp-post outside my home and every time a poster is hung it is pulled off and thrown to the ground.
I find this especially upsetting when it has the Rebbe's picture or anyone's picture for that matter. If it is on shabbos that it gets pulled off there is nothing I can do except watch it get stepped on over and over again.
I agree that Crown Hts looks like a Chazer Shtal. I wish people took more pride in their neighborhood and attempted to clean it up. If everyone took care of the fronts and backs of their homes properly and often the Schuna would look like a Torah Community should look. Being frum does not have to mean shmutz, quite the opposite.. Cleanliness is next to G-dliness.

wow. I did not know Thompson got fined?!
I guess Bloomy did not like Thompson running against him so he made sure to get him.
Bloomy is not exactly a people's mayor.
He has more than tripled his fortune since he is Mayor - everyone else is hurting and he is multiplying his fortune.
As mayor his businesses which he 'officially' does not own surely benefits from those seeking business in return.
i.e. all the roads that are being redone whether needed or not... They give Bloomy business and he gives them contracts.
I wonder if Bloomy will run again?
One thing he did that was good - telling Obama to keep his terrorists out of NY. That deserves a thanks.

Yidden, stop breaking the law and you won't be fined! You live in golus, don't get too comfy now!

clean up crown heights don't make it a dump!!!

TARGETING? THEY ARE DOING THEIR JOB FOR OUR BENEFIT. AFTERALL OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS DIRTY AND STINKS. WHATEVER IT TAKES TO CLEAN UP THE PLACE, GO FOR IT. THERE IS NO EFFORT NEEDED TO BE SENSIBLE REGARDING YOUR GARBAGE AND LITTER. USE THE GARBAGE BINS ON THE CORNERS INSTEAD OF THROWING IT ON THE STREET.

They should allow posters to be put up, only they should charge a fee per poster and you should have to go online and 'register' the posters that were put up. maybe have a 'permit Number' on top of each poster like they have on envelopes.

Maybe there should be designated areas to post posters.
Not on every light pole, but rather on the designated framed areas that could be set up on several corners in Crown Heights. Instead of covering the walls of buildings (where the city does not fine).

It is dicuting. People think that every tree is their personal bulletin board. It is public and it makes our neighborhud look ugly.
